Barú Bella — A Developer's Dream (Mixed Use)

Three minutes from Dominical, Baru Bella offers what developers on Costa Rica's Southern Pacific coast seldom find: vast acreage of flat, open, fully accessible titled land. Most terrain here climbs steeply from the shore. This land sits level in a valley and has a rare combination of extensive public road and river frontage.


The property has 2,000 feet (600 m) of public road frontage for straightforward access and subdivision, and 2,000 feet along the Rio Baru, with a broad riverbank and clear turquoise water. It runs up to 1,000 feet (300 m) deep, and a private creek flows through it. The Pacific Ocean is just minutes away, and the Fila Costena mountains frame the view inland.


Baru Bella already produces income, with two established nurseries leasing a portion of the land, so it earns revenue while a project moves through design and permitting. The farm also holds a granted commercial water concession from Costa Rica's water authority.


Just minutes from one of the country's most sought-after coastal towns, Baru Bella is a rare foundation for a residential community, a boutique hospitality project, or a private equestrian estate.
